Functional Architecture 3.3.4 Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS Publishing System Memory The BIOS displays the “Total Memory” of the system during POST if the “Quiet Boot” is disabled in the BIOS Setup. This is the total size of memory discovered by the BIOS during POST, and is the sum of the individual sizes of installed DDR3 DIMMs in the system. The BIOS also provides the total memory of the system in the BIOS setup (Main page and Advanced | Memory Configuration Page).
Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS Functional Architecture Bank Interleaving – Interleave cache-line data between participant ranks. Channel Interleaving – Interleave between channel when not in Mirrored Channel Mode. Socket Interleaving – Interleaved memory can spread between both CPU sockets when NUMA mode is disabled, given both CPU sockets are populated and DDR3 DIMMs are installed in slots for both sockets. 3.3.6 Memory Test 3.3.6.
Functional Architecture 3.3.8.2 Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS Independent Channel Mode In the Independent Channel mode, you can populate multiple channels on any channel in any order. The Independent Channel mode provides less RAS capability but better DIMM isolation in case of errors. Moreover, it allows the best interleave mode possible and thereby increases performance and thermal characteristics.
Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS Functional Architecture Optimization techniques used by the Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series to maximize memory bandwidth In the Independent Channel mode, all the DDR3 channels operate independently. Slot-to-slot DIMM matching is not required across channels (for example, A1 and B1 do not have to match each other in terms of size, organization, and timing).
Functional Architecture Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS timing, technology and size, CPU 2 memory channels D, E, and F can have a different match of the parameters, channel RAS still functions. 13. The Minimal memory population possible is {DIMM_A1}. In this configuration, the system operates in the Independent Channel Mode. Mirrored Channel Mode is not possible. 14. The minimal population upgrade recommended for enabling CPU 2 socket is {DIMM_A1 and DIMM_D1}.

Functional Architecture 3.3.11 Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS Memory Error Handling The BIOS classifies memory errors into the following categories: Correctable ECC errors: This correction could be the result of an ECC correction, a successfully retried memory cycle, or both. Unrecoverable/Fatal ECC Errors: The ECC engine detects these errors but cannot correct them.

User authentication is handled by IPMI user names and passwords.
Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS 4.3 Platform Management Platform Control This server platform has embedded platform control which is capable of automatically adjusting system performance and acoustic levels.
Platform Management 4.3.1 Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS Memory Open and Closed Loop Thermal Throttling Open-Loop Thermal Throttling (OLTT) Throttling is a solution to cool the DIMMs by reducing memory traffic allowed on the memory bus, which reduces power consumption and thermal output. With OLTT, the system throttles in response to memory bandwidth demands instead of actual memory temperature.
Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS Platform Management BIOS fails to get the Thermal SDRs, then it uses the Memory Reference Code (MRC) default settings for the memory throttling settings. The BIOS Setup Utility provides options to set the fan profile or operating mode the platform will operate under. Each operating mode has a predefined profile for which specific platform targets are configured, which in turn determines how the system fans operate to meet those targets.
Platform Management 4.3.2.3.1 Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS Performance Mode (Default) With the platform running in Performance mode (Default), several platform control algorithm variables are set to enhance the platform’s capability of operating at maximum performance targets for the given system. In doing so, the platform is programmed with higher fan speeds at lower ambient temperatures.
Intel® Server Boards S5520HC and S5500HCV TPS 4.4 Platform Management Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager is a platform (system)-level solution that provides the system with a method of monitoring power consumption and thermal output, and adjusting system variables to control those factors. The BMC supports Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager specification version 1.5.
